Just Kidding by Trudy Ludwig and Adam Gustavson is a book that touches upon the subject of bullying. It shows a little boy who is constantly making fun of the other boys. However when one of the boys gets upset, the bully makes it seem like he is the one being irrational. Then the boy talks to his dad and brother about it who help him find a way to laugh it off when the boy makes jokes about him. When it still doesn't stop, the boy and his family approach the school teacher who then takes an active role in making sure it doesn't happen again. I really liked that this book showed different tactics to try when working with a bully. I feel this book would be helpful in the classroom because it may offer the courage that the students need to tell the teacher about a bully.
